Results will premiere Sunday January 30th, at 4pm PST, below on this page.
Here are the 2022 nominees for the 5th annual Hollywood Art and Movie Awards.
The 2022 Nomination Laurels are available at our FilmFreeway Laurel Center.
The January 2022 event awards the submitters of the 2021 call for entries.
Screenings, QnA, special events: our 5th anniversary edition will be digital.
An in-person event was not safe at the moment due to Omicron. A full blown digital event was decided so every filmmaker could access the same opportunities, fair and square.
Our flagship the PAMA already produced two digital editions noticed by CBS, NBC and Fox. Last year digital HAMA was our best year in terms of networking and engagement. The YVFF exploded its own statistics in the past two years when turning digital. We know the virtual format allows all filmmakers to participate. Please seize the opportunity and join us to celebrate 5 years of the HAMA.
Below is the OFFICIAL SELECTION. WINNERS and all FINAL PLACEMENTS will be announced the last day of the festival.
THE 5th HAMA WILL BE JANUARY 28-30
SCREENINGS will be on XERB,
QnAs, panels, interviews will be full on XERB with snipets on our Facebook page
and on the PAMA-HAMA network YouTube page.
Also follow the network on Instagram, Twitter, Linkedin, TikTok.
